Jadeveon Clowney, DE, 6-5 1/3, 266, 4.53, South Carolina

The highest-rated player in the draft has everything scouts want in a pass rusher. He’s ideally suited for weak-side pass rusher in a 4-3, but he has the athleticism to play outside linebacker on run downs in a 3-4. The only question is his motor. If he plays hard and stays healthy, he could become a perennial Pro Bowl player.
